A Yom Kippur apology to France’s most famous anti-Semite
(JTA) — It kills me to say this, but I may owe a Yom Kippur apology to Dieudonne M’bala M’bala.
My extensive reporting about this French comedian of Cameroonian descent consistently portrayed him as a fanatical, vulgar and racist provocateur whose acts serve as a thinly veiled pretext for venting a hatred for Jews so intense that it’s led him to partnerships with neo-Nazis who despise him for his race, too.
To be sure, I fully stand by this description of Dieudonne, who in May received his umpteenth sentence for incitement to hatred against Jews — a two-month suspended jail term and a $11,000 fine. A friend and partner of the gay-hating skinhead Alain Soral, Dieudonne has been convicted approximately a dozen times in at least three countries of either incitement or of minimizing the Holocaust, which is illegal in France.

The newspaper cited five unnamed Republicans briefed on the meeting who were not authorized to publicly disclose information about the get-together.

Trump campaign CEO made anti-Semitic remarks, his ex-wife says
(JTA) — Donald Trump campaign CEO Stephen Bannon made anti-Semitic remarks over a private school in Los Angeles that accepted his twin daughters, his ex-wife charged during a court battle over post-divorce financial issues.
Bannon’s second wife, Mary Louise Piccard, said in a sworn court declaration that Bannon said he did not want to send his daughters to The Archer School for Girls for the 2007-08 school year because he “didn’t want the girls going to school with Jews,” The Associated Press reported over the weekend. The AP obtained and reviewed the court papers, which were part of a request for Bannon to pay $25,000 in legal fees and cover the $64,000 in tuition.
“He said he doesn’t like Jews and that he doesn’t like the way they raise their kids to be ‘whiny brats,’” Piccard said in a 2007 court filing.

German Vice Chancellor Sigmar Gabriel has criticized Angela Merkel’s party’s stance on refugees, stating that the nation “underestimated” the challenge of integrating asylum seekers and should have taken stricter measures in dealing with the influx.
“It is not enough when she [Angela Merkel] constantly says ‘we can do it’. She must instead create the conditions under which we’ll be able to manage [the refugee situation] well, but the CDU /CSU have always … blocked such efforts,” said Gabriel, who is the leader of the government’s junior coalition partner, the Social Democrats (SPD), in an interview with broadcaster ZDF, as cited in extracts released on Saturday.
